threat and horror
The growling and roaring sounds of an unseen beast roaming a forest present an unsettling threat to a couple.
language
There is infrequent moderate bad language (‘twat’).
suicide and self-harm
It is implied that a person has decided to end their life as they lie down on a freezing forest floor where they are covered in snow.
injury detail
A man attempts to fight off a malevolent, invisible entity which claws him in gory fashion. In another scene, a woman sustains similar bloody claw marks. A man scores bloody symbols into his flesh as part of a ritualistic process. A couple rendered speechless can only cough up blood when they attempt to speak.
theme
A woman twice gives birth to dead babies. Although the images are disturbing and upsetting, the miscarried foetuses have an unrealistic, fantastical appearance as they are seen melting away in the woman’s hands or disappearing into a small pool of blood. The theme of baby loss may be triggering and unsettling. The film’s credits state that it is supported by organisations dealing with issues of baby loss and child death.
